Weekend Thread - Saturday #s (Rth). 50SOG 9M, Kingsman 8, SB 7.2, AS 4.6, Duff 4.2, McFarland 4.4, HTTM2 2.2M

Go KINGSMAN! Cross that 100 M mark!

[CJohn]

Good increase for Kingsman. FSoG with a shitty number. Focus will be number 1 next weekend.

Is 50 going to set the record for largest second weekend % drop for a film to open $85M+? I know DHP2 dropped 72% to $47M. Also pretty sure no Twilight film dropped over 72%.

10m is possible. 

 

2,720,000  

4,600,000 +69.12%

2,562,000 -44.30%

 

= 9,882,000m

Good. Thanks.

[miketheavenger]

FSoG might miss $175m with that rate. Still obviously very profitable, especially since it doesn't seem to slow down overseas. Good for the other movies, too.

All of you spelling doom and gloom on this weekend really need to look at past history. We are coming off a double holiday inflated weekend these 50% drops are normal even for SpongeBob.

[#ED]

50SOG could have 90% drops from here on out. The movie has done its job. Total success.

I agree. Just curious as to whether or not it's setting record for weekend to weekend decline of any movie opening over $35M.

Either it had a bigger Saturday than Rth projected or Universal is projecting a very soft Oscar Sunday drop.

[Avatree]

Huh, 73% is much less than I expected.

THE DUFF opened with an estimated $11.03M this weekend. #TheDUFF

So, KINGSMAN: TSS will make more than FSOG next weekend?

[CJohn]

With $280M int'l, 50 SHADES has now made more than SEX AND THE CITY ($263M) and will soon pass THE HUNGER GAMES ($283M).

The DOM drop doesn't matter.
